[quote=Anonymous]I'm white. When I first took my son to Kumon at the age of five, I was stunned - we were the only white family there. Everyone else was indian or asian. All those kids, just sitting there, heads down, working away - so unlike your typical american classroom! I was impressed. Fast forward five years. My son is still doing Kumon every night and I'm still checking his homework every morning with my coffee. Not the funnest thing I could think of! My son is not a math wiz, but he is the best in his elementary school class. Over the years we've seen many white families come and go. No one has stuck around for longer than a few months. Most of the indian families I met when we first came are still there. Feel free to draw your own conclusions. [/quote]
